3 Configuring M5122

Your service provider has configured your M5122 for the service. Do not change settings unless specifically asked by your service provider. You can change M5122 settings with an ordinary web
browser , such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. Use a PC connected to an ETH port of M5122 for configuration. In this
case the corresponding ETH indicator should be lit.

3.1 Browser management

The web configuration pages of M5122 can be accessed through the Ethernet and through the ADSL/ATM channels of M5122. In order to access the web management feature, the IP functionality must be activated and an IP address must be given to the corresponding interface.
You can use your PCs web browser software to access the web configuration pages in M5122. To access the web pages you must know the IP address of your M5122 or, alternatively, the “name” that your M5122 recognises.
Note
Before using your web browser for configuration, you must know the IP address or the name assigned to your M5122.
There are three ways to find out whether to use a name or an IP address:
D Your service provider has given you an IP address for M5122. D Y our M5122 uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
and Domain Name Server. In this case the name is M5122.
D Y our M5122 uses DHCP . In this case run winipcfg.exe (W indows
95) or ipconfig.exe (Windows NT). The IP address of M5122 is the Default Gateway address shown by the ipconfig program.

Nokia M5122 User Manual
DHCP page
Note
Use DHCP with PPTP tunneling only.
On the Local Network DHCP subpage you can enable/disable Dynamic Host Control Protocol and set the Address ranges from which the addresses are distributed to the DHCP clients on your network. You can also set the Domain Name Server addresses here.
Start address is the first address in the address range. The Range size defines how many addresses the range contains. Subnet mask is the subnet mask of the addresses in the range. Primary and Secondary DNSs set the domain name servers for the corresponding address range. Lease time defines how often the DHCP client must renew its lease. Domain name defines the domain name for the range.
The DHCP server can be enabled towards LAN and Vbridge (gateway interface) ports. When the DHCP server is enabled, up to two scopes (address ranges) are automatically generated and bound to Vbridge interface. Two separate address ranges can be used if more than 253 addresses are required on the local subnet, if two non-contiguous ranges are needed, or if an additional router with DHCP relay is used on the local network. In Figure 11, scope (a) has been bound to Vbridge interface. When the address ranges are not defined, M5122 uses the default values for all DHCP parameters. The default values are:
D Start address is the interface IP address D Subnet mask 255.255.255.0 D Range size of up to 253 addresses starting from the interface IP
address.
D DNS address is the interface IP address D Lease time is 60 minutes D Domain name is null string
If at least one address range has been defined, then IP address, DNS, domain name and lease time, if defined, override the default values.

4 Features

M5122 can operate as a bridge between the Ethernet and the virtual channels of ADSL/ATM interfaces.

4.1 Bridging

M5122 operates as a self-learning bridge supporting up to 1024 MAC addresses. Bridging in done between the Ethernet 10Base-T interfaces and the ATM/ADSL interface.

4.2 ATM and ADSL

M5122 supports eight ATM/ADSL virtual channel connections (VCC). The factory default setting is one VCC with virtual path identifier (VPI) 0 and virtual channel identifier (VCI) 100. The ATM channel supports UBR (Unspecified bit rate) traffic shaping. The
C33874002SE_A0

Nokia M5122 User Manual
maximum transmit rate on the VCC is equal to the ADSL upstream capability.
The ADSL transmission is based on the DMT line code. M5122 provides a DMT line rate up to 8 Mbit/s downstream and up to 800 kbit/s upstream. The DMT transceiver is rate adaptive and capable of providing faster rates over short distances or slower rates over long distances. The transceiver adapts itself to the line conditions and rate adaptation is done in steps of 32 kbit/s. The network operator can set the data rates as a part of the network management functionality provided by Nokia DSLAM.
M5122 supports ATM over ADSL transmission ITU-T G.992.1 and ADSL Lite ITU-T G.992.2. The ADSL mode can be changed through the command line interface.

4.3 Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

Note
Use DHCP with PPTP tunneling only.
M5122 can act as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server for the PCs on the end-user home network. In this mode, M5122 can assign up to 253+253 consecutive addresses from two separate address ranges (that is, 253 consecutive addresses per address range) to the PCs on the home network. Two separate address ranges can be used if more than 253 addresses are required on the local subnet, if two non-contiguous address ranges are needed or if an additional router with DHCP relay is used on the local network. M5122 can also act as a DHCP relay agent and relay the DHCP requests to an external DHCP server.

4.4 Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP)

20
When PPTP local tunneling is used, a local network client initialises a PPTP-tunneled PPP connection (VPN) to Nokia M5122. The modem terminates the tunnel and all data from that terminated local PPTP tunnel will be forwarded to an assigned ATM VCC by using PPP over AAL5 encapsulation. Thus, each local PPTP tunnel requires an equivalent ATM VCC assigned to it restricting the total number of local PPTP hosts to 8.
E Copyright Nokia Networks Oy
C33874002SE_A0
Local tunneling is used when there is a need to have one or more computers connected independently to different networks. For example, in remote work application, the rest of the family may be using the common ISP services and one or two family members need to gain access to their corporate networks. With local tunneling, these remote workers may be connected to a different network than the rest of the users.
Local tunneling is activated using the PPTP client running, for example, in Windows. The destination IP address must be M5122 LAN/VBRIDGE IP address depending on the configuration. PPP packets within PPTP are mapped to the configured VCC. M5122 has three different ways to choose the ATM VCC that will be used for tunneling:
D Automatic, chooses the first free VCC D Chooses the VCC number using C:number, where number is from
1 to 8. C:number is typed after the M5122 IP address in PCs PPTP client Connect To window (see Figure 1-1).
D Chooses the VCC number using N:name, where name is the
VCCx description. N:name is entered after the M5122 IP address.
Figure 1-1 Choosing the VCC2 for tunneling example

4.5 Payload encapsulations

The Ethernet frames are encapsulated in the ATM link by using RFC 2684 LLC/SNAP encapsulation.

Nokia M5122 User Manual

4.6 Weighted Fair Queueing (Class of Service)

As a Class of Service (CoS) function, M5122 supports Weighted Fair Queueing (WFQ) for each ATM VCC. The CoS function ensures that different IP traf fic streams are treated fairly in the upstream (towards the Internet) direction. This may be necessary, in some cases, because the upstream capacity of the ADSL line is somewhat limited compared to the Ethernet bandwidth on the office or home LAN. The WFQ CoS function classifies IP traffic streams based on IP address, protocol and port fields. It is capable of identifying the IP stream from all supported payload encapsulation formats.
